SkyCastle was discovered by Gareth Jones owner of RaglanRock who was out Bow hunting one day and spied some limestone in the distance. Perhaps the limestone outcrops reminded him of some ruined castles of his homeland. Gareth invited a few renouned Kiwi climbers to check it over the past few years and bolted around 10 routes along with some others from RaglanRock. It was opened to the public in November 2022 after some ACAT volunteers and Gareth raised some money to put in a carpark and a few other improvements.
